13th company

[amrogers3]

Looking for some advice/input from fellow battle brothers.

 

I want to build a 13th Company Space Wolf army and am currently trying to collect what items I will need for the conversions. The idea would be a pre-heresy Space Wolf army that has been lost in the galaxy salvaging weapons and armor wherever they can. Beat up weapons, armor, picked up from slain foes, you get the idea. Besides that I am open to suggestions. Here is what I have come up with so far.

 

Fantasy Chaos warrior torsos

Ork Choppas

Marauder heads, arms, weapons, shields

Beastmen weapons, shields

40K Chaos Marine bolters, armor, backpacks

 

Suggestions for any other bits, models, weapons, etc that would look cool would be most appreciated.

 

Cheers.

Forgeworld pre-heresy armour, it would look great mixed with chaos marine bitz... :D

I used the new space wolves box with normal chaos marines for my grey slayers and pack leaders and I plan on mixing a box of khorne zerkers with the space wolves box for my storm claws. I used the chaos horsemen box mixed with the wolves box for my scouts. The scouts are probably my favorite because I left off the shoulder pads and all have bare heads so they feel the most wolfy to me.

Remember that while they have been in the warp for 10k years, they have maintained their loyalty. So don't go too far in making them feral/Mad Maxian for being in the warp for so long. They wold maintain as much as they could and what Chaos gear they would be using would probably be covered in purity seals and runes of cleansing before they would use them.

@Galdegir M

 

Those definitely look awesome and have the "look" I am going for. The only downside is the cost. Those suckers are EXPENSIVE!

 

@rodgambit

 

Probably go this route and mix in some fantasy chaos warriors to round it out.

 

@Brother Ramses

 

I understand where you are coming from but I want these marines to look ragtag and with weapons, armor, and equipment from different armies. Painting the worn look is going to be a whole different issues but I'll save that discussion for a later date.

 

Now just looking for conversion bits to really bring this idea to life. Trying to something different than smash a bunch of kits together though.
